Just told my 79 year old mom today that As The World Turns was ending Sept 17th. She is heartbroken and doesn't understand why! I agree. We have so many reality shows on tv I am sick of them. They could have ended the B&B since ATWT has senority and bump it up an half hour to see what happens before they ended it. If it didn't work they could bring back B&B. It seems to me CBS doesn't want to try with their old tried and true shows and would rather just add new iffy ones. Shows are like a marriage their are going to be slow periods! Well good luck CBS. No wonder why you are in last place! I now only offically have one daytime soap which is Y&R which at times I have to shut off bc it's soo sick for example NICKI and alcohol again what next from the past her drug problem ICK. I love Billy and Victoria together. Her and JD made me want to puke!!! I will miss you ATWT. I grew up on you with my blind grandma and disabled mom! You will be much missed. Myabe I will get lucky and they will bring you back!!!

Why is CBS ending ATWT? All those years of faithful viewers are now going to get garbage. Poof it is gone! They had a great story line going. CBS did the same thing with the Guiding Light. More unreal REALITY CRAP. I watched them both when I was home, otherwise I would DVR them. This is so sad. Shame on you CBS, ATWT replaced by “The Talk” just what we need more Talking Heads!

Why is it that we can have all these talk shows and all these dumb and boring reality shows yet we cannot keep our favorite soaps like As The World Turns and Guiding Light which I and I am sure millions of others have watched through the last 30 years or more. Maybe itis time to start boycotting CBS

A crapfest afternoon, thought I never do this but I'm defecting to ABC, but I will still watch Y&R and B&B, but I don't know how much longer. And I'll also watch OLTL and GH. There will be a cold day in hell before I watch show that is being replaced. That is my new line up.

I watched this show as a little girl with my grandmother. I am now grown with 20 year old grandchildren. I understand the economics of ratings and fascination with youth. Having said that, ATWT was a stable. The fictious Oakdale residents came into our living rooms 5 days a yeay for decades. Whether you loved or were bored with an episode, they became the people you grew up with. Tho they were actors with scripts;they were real people. You watched them age like a next door neighbor. There was a relatability. Then one day they were just gone without notice. Like waking up and finding your friendly neighbors had moved away in the night. People who watched them from pre-teen-teen, between college clases, between bottle feedings and soccer games understandibility feel sad. The reality shows that are airing may be more relevant to todays folks..but do not fool yourself;they are no more real than soaps!
